Title: Aviophobia, part 2
Author: Ash Llelo
Disclaimer: Absolutely, positively, 100% made up. All fiction.
Pairing: SB/VM
Summary: Sean can no longer avoid the freefall Viggo offers.
Rating: PG-13, nothing too graphic
Feedback: Yes, please.
Archiving: rugbytackle, Green Opals, anyone else that wants it. Just let me know.
Notes: Sort of a sequel to my previous double-drabble, Aviophobia. It's taken me forever to get to this and I'm still not too sure about this one, but here it is. Probably will have more to follow, eventually.

Sean underestimated Viggo.
He had intended reality to douse fantasy in his single surrender to Viggo.
Instead, an all-consuming conflagration sparked, flesh became ash, heat pounded past carefully-wrought barriers, cracks snaked through smoke-choked reason.
Blind in the wake of one night's inferno Sean no longer could guard against the freefall Viggo offered.
Fear conquered fear and he took flight to find solid ground.
Arrow in a broken compass, the polarity of his anger swung wildly between himself and Viggo, leaving Sean helpless to navigate this starless, night-dark frontier.
Alone in his own country Sean found himself dreaming of foreign fire.

Lovely! Incandescent, even. I love how out of control Sean seems, and the wonderful imagery, foreign fire..Arrow in a broken compass..night-dark frontier Very nice! :)

Lovely! Incandescent, even.
*blush* Wow, thank you so much!
I was worried that the imagery might be a little overdone, so I'm very glad to hear you thought it worked.

Seven kinds? I would've been happy with just one, but who am I to argue? ;)
You are quite welcome, and thank YOU for the feed back.

you deserve all seven, eh. :)

I love the premise of this one. Sean thinking that he can control surrender. And how not doing this is suddenly more frightening than taking the leap.

I had to read this a couple of times to savor it all.
Thank you *S*

Sean definitely needs his feet under him. Poor man doesn't do unsettled well. And Viggo's the very definition of it.

Sean knows what he needs to do to find his feet. He just can't bring himself to do it. It's too frightening.
And, yup, Viggo is enough to unsettle anyone! ;)

Thanks for the feedback. Always appreciated!
